New Xbox reveal coming May 21st

THIS. So, for all you Xbox fans, Microsoft is inviting the press to its Redmond campus in Washington state for the reveal of the newest Xbox.

Here’s the official statement out of Redmond, per Microsoft PR:

May 21st marks the beginning of a new generation of games, TV and entertainment.

We will be holding an intimate press event on the Xbox Campus that will be streamed live around the world via Xbox.com, Xbox LIVE and broadcast on Spike TV if you are in the U.S. and Canada.

During this event, we’ll share our vision for Xbox and provide a real taste of the future. Then, 19-days later at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles, we’ll continue the conversation and showcase our full line-up of blockbuster games.

Beyond what is stated, we cannot share any further details at this time.

M4d Ski11z’s take: Interesting. Sadly, I didn’t get an invite but would have LOVED to be at the reveal. I fully expect several teases, the actual console on display and a couple bombshells (exclusive Bethesda title, Halo and a modern shooter exclusive to the Nextbox). Microsoft will hold a few trump cards for E3. I do NOT expect Microsoft to address the DRM rumors or the always-on Internet chatter surrounding the console.
